Childcare During Covid-19 is gathering data and evidence of the challenges that the pandemic poses for the sector and will make policy recommendations to support both practitioners and parents.
A team from the universities of Leeds and Bristol have been awarded funding of more than £430,000 from the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), as part of the UK Research and Innovation’s rapid response to Covid-19, to assess the impact of coronavirus on early years childcare provision in the UK.
Nursery World Editor Liz Roberts is part of the Digital Advisory Board.
